I will see about the trainer at my school. I have really good flexibility, as I can do the splits all three ways almost.  like a few inches off. the masters at my school said they got hurt many times, and many of the same injuries, so maybe its just unavoidable? OverTheAir Posted at 5:13 pm on April 6, 2008 You clearly need some flexibility and stretching, tons of it, before and after you work out. Your biomechanics might be wrong too, like how you do things. If you're in school you should have an athletic trainer, or some kind of health professional that can check you out. It could be so many things. Like for your back/knees it could be your shoes, you might need orthotics or something. Or it could be one big problem, that is causing most of the others. Who knows. MadisonIsntAMiracle Posted at 5:12 pm on April 6, 2008 Even when you're hurt, still work at it slightly. If you fight against it you'll be able to stand the pain. Sometimes you just have to suck it up and do it. sexii xo Posted at 5:11 pm on April 6, 2008 some ppl are just accident prone acausedelle Posted at 5:11 pm on April 6, 2008 You pulled your groin??   ss454 Posted at 5:10 pm on April 6, 2008 You aint doin it right All 6 previous replies displayed.
